2026 Slava Ukraini Update

I setup Slava Ukraini in August 2025 to buy and deliver vehicles and supplies to first responders in Ukraine. Thanks to each of you, we raised $11,200 in donations in 2025 and delivered the following three vehicles and supplies to Ukraine:

Ford Ranger Truck with Humanitarian Supplies (September 2025)

1st Ambulance & Supplies delivered to Ukraine with Drive 2 Save Lives (October 2025)

2nd Ambulance & Supplies delivered to Ukraine with Sunflower of Peace (November 2025)

2026 Goals:

Ukraine first responders are needing many more vehicles in 2026. Missile and drone attacks continue to increase across Ukraine. Many first responder vehicles now only last a couple months with the increasing volume of FPV drones targeting all vehicles and now have an increased range of ~30 miles. All indications are that the intensity of the war in Ukraine will increase the 1st half of 2026 with Russia desperate to gain additional territory before their economic conditions deteriorate further with Ukraine destroying Russia’s energy export capacity.

My goal for 2026 is to raise $25,000+ and fund and deliver 5 vehicles and supplies in 2026. I’m also set up with Benevity as many corporations match employee time & $ donations. In 2026 I’m also looking for help with advertising and social media content for Slava Ukraini as I completely lack any talent for this.

In 2026, I’m also planning on 2-3 trips to Ukraine myself in to deliver vehicles and supplies into Ukraine. I’ll be shifting focus away from ambulances and toward trucks and vans that are smaller and have better maneuverability to avoid FPV drones.
